Yoshiaki Fujiwara (b. 1949) is a UsefulNotes/{{Japan}}ese {{Professional Wrestl|ing}}er who later took up acting and promoting. He debuted in 1972 for Wrestling/NewJapanProWrestling as its first dojo graduate ever, learning UsefulNotes/CatchWrestling under the legendary Wrestling/KarlGotch. Thanks to his training and toughness, he was appointed NJPW founder Wrestling/AntonioInoki's bodyguard, but his lack of charisma kept him tied to the low card. This ended when he attacked native heel Wrestling/RikiChoshu before a match, gaining the crowd's cheers and becoming a famous face of the company. In 1984, he followed his students Wrestling/AkiraMaeda and Wrestling/NobuhikoTakada to found the Wrestling/UniversalWrestlingFederation, a promotion which featured a realistic wrestling style called shoot-style. After the UWF's demise, he returned along his pals to NJPW, where he competed for four more years, until Maeda left again to form the second UWF, and after negociating with Inoki, Fujiwara and his two new students Wrestling/MasakatsuFunaki and Wrestling/MinoruSuzuki were allowed to join it. They enjoyed an immense popularity, but the company fell apart again when its members took separate directions. Fujiwara and his trainees founded Pro Wrestling Fujiwara Gumi, where he put himself over as the company's ace, but again it was short-lived, as half of the roster left to form MMA promotion Pancrase and the other half (this time in good terms with him) to form Battlarts. Now going solo, Fujiwara became a freelancer and worked for feds like Wrestling/AllJapanProWrestling and [[Wrestling/ProWrestlingZERO1 Pro Wrestling ZERO-ONE]], and got a great victory against gastric cancer in 2007. He remains as a free agent, is associated with the Scientific Wrestling organization, and occasionally works as a trainer for Inoki Genome Federation.

* RealMenWearPink: He is an awesome artist, especially at drawing (which is not typically considered a manly art in Japan), and even used to draw illustrations for pro wrestling magazines. Ironically he used to hate painting since he hated his art teachers telling him what to do and even told one of them "They are all those who failed to become painters, so they shouldn't be teaching it."
